Castle Bank is fine and well-preserved Iron Age hillfort, commanding a north-south ridge in hills to the east of the Wye Valley. The fort comprises a main northern enclosure, which is elongated and measures 290m externally north-south, and narrows from some 84m wide in the north to around 46m wide in the south. The rampart is formed by scree on all sides except the east, and may once have stood as a walled rampart. This main fort is augmented by a second long, narrow enclosure to the south measuring 130m x 42m, presumably a later annex. Numerous house platforms can be identified from aerial photographs in the northern fort.
